About this car
This 1974 450SEL is offered on eBay by jdee426 in Phoenix, MD. The asking price is $14,299. The car is finished in Blue over Tan, an automatic gearbox. The odometer shows 121,500 miles. On a W116, rust in the sills, floor edges and around the front and rear screens is the main concern.
What the photos show
- Blue paint is deep, glossy and even on every panel, so no respray money needed.
- Chrome grille, bumpers and trim are bright and straight, so no chrome bill.
- Tan leather seats front and rear look almost new with no tears or wear showing, so no reupholstery cost.
- Dash top is uncracked and the wood is glossy across the dash and console, saving a dash restoration.
- Trunk is clean, carpeted and dry looking, so no trunk work needed.
- Engine bay is tidy and complete with only light surface rust on the exhaust manifold, so no obvious engine-bay spend.
- Underside shows surface rust on the subframe, exhaust and suspension but no rot-through visible, so budget a clean and protect, not metal work.
- Roof and sunroof panel paint looks a little flatter than the rest of the body, so a polish may be all it needs.
- Color-matched hubcaps are clean and Michelin tires have good tread, so no immediate tire spend.
Money: At $14,299 this is the cleanest car in the shard — glossy paint, near-new tan leather and a tidy engine bay support the price, with only underside surface rust to clean up.
